The purpose of these requirements is to provide enhanced & contextual building design, uniform landscaping, specific development standards and vehicular access control measures for development within this corridor. Within the EM-HCO District are the following Sub-Areas: Campus Sub-Area The purpose and intent of the Campus Sub-Area is to recognize the unique character and interrelated development in proximity to Campbell University. The standards of this district are to assure orderly, coordinated, contextual development by establishing uniform standards that recognize the university’s unique impact in this area. Airport Sub-Area The Airport Sub-Area is established in the vicinity of the Harnett County Regional Jetport. The purpose of this area is to provide protection from encroachment of incompatible development characteristics and place additional height restrictions on buildings, structures, and trees. Basic design standards are created in this area to encourage uniform office, commercial, research and industrial site development. Applicability A.The EM-HCO District shall apply to all parcels located on either side of US Highway 421 from the Town of Lillington’s planning & development regulation jurisdiction (west) to the Town of Erwin’s planning and development regulation jurisdiction (east). B.The depth of the district is six hundred (600) feet from the right-of-way of US Highway 421 as measured from and perpendicular to each side of the right-of-way, except in such instances in which the corridor width is modified by the County. For parcels that are partially located in the EM-HCO District, the entire area for any new development activity must meet the standards of this Article/Section. C.The Campus Sub-Area Standards apply specifically to all parcels located on either side of US Highway 421 from the Town of Lillington’s planning & development regulation jurisdiction (west) to the intersection of US Highway 421 with NC 27 (east). D.The Airport Sub-Area Standards apply specifically to all parcels located on either side of US Highway 421 from the intersection of US Highway 421 with NC 27 (east) to Thornton’s Creek (west). E.The boundaries of the EM-HCO District and the Sub-Areas are shown on the County’s Officially Adopted Zoning Map. Permitted & Special Uses The permitted uses & special uses shall be the same as those in the underlying zoning district. Item 8 HCBOC 061322 ws Pg. 22 Harnett County Ed-Med Highway Corridor Overlay District Final Draft A – 035.3126.2022 Page 2 of 16 Exemptions The following development types are exempt from the standards in this Article/Section. • Master development plans approved under the Office & Institutional Zoning District. • Developments proposed for single-family residential subdivisions. • Buildings which are primarily utilized for agricultural purposes. • Existing single-family lots and single-family subdivisions. Expansions & Changes of Use For properties which have expansions or additions which singularly or collectively exceed 25% of the gross floor area and/floor surface area or change use which requires additional off-street parking made after application of this Article/Section, the EM-HCO requirements shall apply. Expansions shall comply with these regulations at such time that the expansion totals 50 percent (50%) or more of the existing building size. The total percentage of building expansions shall be combined over a five (5) year period. At such time that the percentage of building expansions reaches fifty percent (50%) or more of the original building size, these regulations shall be met, for that part of the structure included in the expansion. In cases where an expansion is equal to or greater than the total square footage of the existing building, both the expansion and the existing building shall also be brought into compliance with these regulations. The total shall be combined over a five (5) year period. Modifications The Administrator, in reviewing a development application, may adjust specific EM-HCO requirements for yards adjacent to the corridor or intersecting streets provided the average depth of a required yard or setback for the entire parcel is maintained. In permitting site-specific variations the Administrator shall find that the modification requested: • Is consistent with the overall purpose and intent of these requirements; • Is necessitated by the configuration and/or topography of the land, which makes it impractical to comply with the yard and setback requirements of this Article/Section for specific areas of the parcel; • Does not reduce the required yard or setback by more than fifty percent (50%). Required Development Standards A. Building Location Standards 1. Building setbacks shall be the same as for the underlying zoning district provided, however, buildings shall be oriented to “front” on US Highway 421 and be placed no farther than one hundred (100) feet from the US Highway 421 right-of-way line. Commented [JS1]: 1.Expansions shall comply with these regulations at such time that the expansion totals 50 percent (50%) or more of the existing building size. The total percentage of building expansions shall be combined over a five (5) year period. At such time that the percentage of building expansions reaches 50 percent (50%) or more of the original building size, these regulations shall be met, for that part of the structure included in the expansion. 2.In cases where an expansion is equal to or greater than the total square footage of the existing building, both the expansion and the existing building shall also be brought into compliance with these regulations. The total shall be combined over a five (5) year period. Commented [CS2R1]: Incorporated language.

REASONING: The impact to the surrounding community is reasonable as there are several nonresidential uses in this area. Yes No The requested zoning district is COMPATIBLE with the existing Land Use Classification. REASONING: The requested zoning to Commercial is compatible with the overall land use classification of Employment Mixed Use, as well as within the Compatibility Development Target area. Per the County’s Land Use Plan Employment Mixed Use areas “are located along major thoroughfares and include prime locations for economic development opportunities.” Yes No The proposal does ENHANCE or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare. REASONING: The requested zoning would enhance or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare due to the potential site improvements that could take place. Yes No The request is for a SMALL SCALE REZONING and should be evaluated for reasonableness. REASONING: Due to the size of these parcels and the Land Use compatibility, this application does not need to be considered for a Small Scale rezoning. Additional Information Harnett County Economic Development Department comments: “Commercial zoning along a heavily-traveled transportation corridor like US 401 could lead to new retail, service, and dining options that would serve the surrounding residents, while also creating additional property and sales tax revenues. We are excited about the future of our main transportation arteries connecting Harnett County communities to adjacent marketplaces, and feel they are natural opportunities to capitalize on revenues, while also creating new quality of life destinations throughout our County.” On June, 6th, the Harnett County Planning Board voted unanimously to recommend approval of this application based on the growth in this area as well as compatibility with the County’s Land Use Plan.  Several Planning Board members voiced concerns about traffic as well as buffering against exiting residential homes.  Two citizens spoke with concerns about buffering along their property. Suggested Statement-of-Consistency (Staff concludes that…) As stated in the evaluation, the requested rezoning to Commercial would not have an unreasonable impact on the surrounding community based on the nonresidential growth patterns of this area as well as compliance with the County’s Land Use Plan. Therefore, i t is recommended that this rezoning request be APPROVED.

REASONING: The impact to the surrounding community is reasonable, as the requested zoning district is similar in nature to the surrounding area. Yes No The requested zoning district is COMPATIBLE with the existing Land Use Classification. REASONING: The requested zoning to RA-30 is compatible with the Land Use Classification of Agricultural and Rural Residential. Densities in such a land use class can range from 1-3 units per acre depending on soils and the character of adjacent development. Yes No The proposal does ENHANCE or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare. REASONING: The requested zoning to RA-30 would maintain the public health, safety and general welfare due to the existing residential uses and zoning districts in the area. Yes No The request is for a SMALL SCALE REZONING and should be evaluated for reasonableness. REASONING: Since the proposed zoning district of RA-30 is immediately adjacent, as well a portion of the property is already RA-30, this application does need to be considered a Small Scale Rezoning. Additional Information On June, 6th, the Harnett County Planning Board voted unanimously to recommend approval of this application based on the growth in this area as well as compatibility with the County’s Land Use Plan.  No one spoke in opposition. Suggested Statement-of-Consistency (Staff concludes that…) As stated in the evaluation, the requested rezoning to RA-30 would not have an unreasonable impact on the surrounding community and will maintain the public health, safety, and general welfare based on the existing residential uses and compliance with the County’s Land Use Plan. Therefore, it is recommended that this rezoning request be APPROVED. Agricultural and Rural Residential: Primarily agricultural and forestry uses with some rural residential areas. These areas are located outside of existing and future sewer service areas and rely on septic systems for wastewater treatment. They have a limited road network and in some cases lie within High Quality Watershed or Water Supply Watershed areas. The lack of utility and transportation infrastructure, the established low density development pattern and ongoing agricultural activities in these a reas contribute to their rural character. This character can be enhanced by encouraging only low intensity uses, single family residential up to one unit per acre and context sensitive rural design.
